Description
The history of the brewery begins in 1821, when Messrs Wauters, Faseert and Neyt founded the Halve Maan brewery in Hulst. The Hulsterse Brouwers persist in brewing top-fermented beer. Even when all other Dutch breweries brew Pilsener, traditional beer still flows from the kettles in Hulst. In 1968, the brewery in the city center of Hulst was closed and the cellar rights were sold to Paul Vermeersen, who before then was a distributor of Hulster beer.
In 1989, a new brewery was put into use on the Absdaalseweg. From 2010, the old brewery installation was thoroughly modernized. In 2016, the name “Beer Brewery Vermeersen” was adopted. The brewery is currently focusing on brewing beautifully balanced beers from, as far as possible, local ingredients for the Zeeland Market.

Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Poured a murky dark brown with a thin, slightly broken tan head. The aroma is all yeast with a little red berry fruit in the background. The flavour is soft weak bitter with some fruit and liqourice on the back of the palate. The flavours dance around quite nicely in your mouth for a few moments, but the finish is a little weak.

Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Poured a hazy medium amber with a frothy, long-lasting, white head. The aroma is of yeast and fruit, leading to a yeasty, acidic, sour flavour which immediately hits the palate for a flavourful, refreshing beer.
